We’re a martial arts gym dedicated to making self-defense training personal, approachable, and real.

At ATX Tactics, we make self-defense personal and approachable. We believe simple is safe — our training methodology equips students to build comprehensive self-defense skills to protect against common, realistic threats. The goal is to build core fighting skills and repeat high-percentage tactics that can be performed under stress. Our self-defense instructors are all long-time coaches who will work with you to help you feel empowered, confident, and safe — in a way that works for your body and the priorities that matter most for your own personal defense.

What will you learn?

The backbone of what we teach is modern Krav Maga. Krav Maga is a martial arts system synonymous with self-defense. Our approach to Krav Maga is unique in that it incorporates modern elements from other combat sports like boxing, jiu-jitsu, and MMA. Many aspects of competitive combat sports have evolved rapidly in the last decade, and we feel passionately about bringing these innovations into Krav Maga to make it a more updated fighting system for self-defense.

Join our weekly women’s self-defense class in Austin, Texas. A safe and supportive environment to practice common self-defense issues faced by women. Every Saturday afternoon. This class is taught by a certified trauma-informed instructor.

What our members say

★★★★★

  • I would absolutely recommend ATX Tactics to anyone of any gender, age, or skill level. Our 10 year old son began classes in the winter and I can't say enough nice things about the staff, facility, and the teaching.

    Matt B.

  • Vanessa and Eddy are fantastic instructors: clear, direct, empathetic, and kind. The space is welcoming and the classes are phenomenal. Cannot recommend enough! The cherry on top is the ample free parking. 10/10!

    Laura T.

  • I LOVE this gym. They have a great mix of classes, and every time I leave I feel more confident in my ability to defend myself. The instructors are all beyond phenomenal. They really know their stuff. I would recommend this gym to any friend and family member, whatever their current fitness level.

    Cedar N.

  • ATX Tactics is my home away from home. Although I consider myself a martial artist at heart, I'm constantly learning new techniques here and improving tried and true self-defense concepts. I'm happy to recommend them to newbies and experienced folks alike. Tactics may be a relatively young self-defense school, but the classes are consistently well thought-out and the teaching is second to none.
